Proverbs 11:27-31 New English Translation (NET)

27. The one who diligently seeks good seeks favor,but the one who searches for evil – it will come to him.

28. The one who trusts in his riches will fall,but the righteous will flourish like a green leaf.

29. The one who troubles his family will inherit nothing,and the fool will be a servant to the wise person.

30. The fruit of the righteous is like a tree producing life,and the one who wins souls is wise.

31. If the righteous are recompensed on earth, how much more the wicked sinner!
